C. 20548 FILE: B-199533 DATE: August 25, 1980 MATTER OF: Department of the Army--Request for Advance Decision IGEST: _' 1. (Army's purchase of housekeeping services rom nonappropriated fund instrumentality (NAFI) is tantamount to procurement from non-Governmental, commercial source so such purchases should be accomplished by contract or regular purchase order processed through contracting official. 2. Although Army acted improperly in purchasing services from NAFI without contract or regular purchase order, since Army has obtained and received benefit of services NAFI may be paid on quantum meruit basis provided purchase is ratified by Army contracting official. This decision involves the propriety of certifying for payment a voucher in favor of a nonappropriated fund instrumentality (NAFI), specifically the Nellis Billetiny Fund, Nellis AFB, Nevada. The voucher in question, in the amount of $1,452.00, represents the value of housekeeping services rendered ($4.00 per person per day) while certain military person- nel were quartered at the Nellis AFB VOQ/VAQ (Visiting Officers Quarters/Visiting Airmen's Quarters) during training exercises that were conducted in March 1980. The Finance and Accounting Officer (FAO) questions the propriety of an appropriated fund activity (the Army) obtaining these services from a NAFI without using a contract or purchase order processed through a contracting official.
